Wear Red 2018

On Friday 9th February, the most red-hotly anticipated event of the year, Wear Red, took place.

We had over 140 offices from over 25 companies take part in Wear Red 2018, from Brazil to Bahrain to Bulgaria through to Basingstoke.

Patron and corporate supporters dressed as chilli peppers, sold their homemade biryanis, soups, and cakes, and took part in fundraising fantasy rugby and chess competitions all in support of RedR's humanitarian work.

Over 25 different companies took part, including AECOM, Arup, Atkins, Jacobs, JLT, Mott MacDonald, Ramboll, Stantec, Tony Gee and Partners LLP, and WSP. And of course, RedR HQ took part here in London! Our keen bakers and sushi makers came up trumps and we were able to fill our boots alongside all our amazing supporters!

A huge thank you to everyone who took part – your support makes an enormous difference to RedR and all our beneficiaries. We are still counting cash to confirm a final total from all the generous donations that were received. Watch this space for an announcement in the coming few weeks!

Thanks also to everyone shared photos on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook!

Finally, we would like to again thank all of our Patrons and corporate supporters across the globe for their constant enthusiasm and commitment. Thanks to you, we are able to continue providing humanitarian training and support to vulnerable communities across the globe.
